Of interest.
FW - here is that Cyrus word again.
I don’t track 100% with this guy in general, but on the specifics, it is quite startling.
Thanks for the ping. Fascinating thread!
People have been making a Trump/Cyrus connection for many months. It is a loose but valid parallel. One difference is that whereas Cyrus was a pagan, Trump acknowledges God. Whoever had/has spiritual oversight for Trump has a lot to answer for, but at least there’s room for growth.
Btw, while we’re so concerned about the country—and this decidedly includes me—God is concerned about Trump’s soul. We look at Trump and hope he can manage a major course correction for the US. It just might be that God is looking at the presidency as the place where he can do eternal business with Trump re the Kingdom to come. After all, as C.S.Lewis pointed out, the mightiest empire is temporal; the lowliest soul is eternal.
